you got it all wrong man. criticism is what makes you a stronger artist. For starters start drawing out gestures of your characters. by gestures i mean really rough sketching the body out. Try to imagine were everything on the body goes. When you think of the body as individual shapes and parts, thats when you really start to understand how it works. don't draw your characters fully clothed straight from the begining. draw out the gesture of a nude man or woman and then start adding little details here and there, then you add the clothes. A well formed body will fit a t shirt better than a blocky one. if i could suggest a book for you, go on amazon.com and buy "an atlas of anatomy for artists." oh and don't be discouraged if someone tells you, you suck. think the way i do and remember these words...

"Let them make fun of me and say i can't all they want. it only makes me look like 10 times more of a badass when i prove them wrong!" thats my personal moto. let it be yours too. stay easy homie.

First of all, work on proportions. Don't worry about filling in the details, just the basic arm and legs, in the right size too. The head in all the drawings seem horribly huge, and the feet are way too small, seriously.

You shouldn't take critique as something to drag you down, but something that will help you getting better.If you need any other help than critiques, ask your friend google for tutorials, they are very helpful sometimes.Also look at other artists works and compare your work to it.There are planty of artists in the art forum so you shouldn't have trouble finding one

It's not enough to have no thoughts.You gotta be unable to express them.

I learned how to draw better by drawing what I looked at. The more I looked and drew, the better it became, and it taught me how to get the basic shapes in art down. After you've mastered that (mastered as in when you feel you're done) start using what you learned ( practice shading a bit, too) to draw what's in your own mind. Tracing helps teach you how to steady your own hand a bit, as well.

Working on another story other than Hellfire, called Geistauge, which can be found here.

Yes, just grab some printer paper to draw on. Like everyone else said, it's best to be critiqued than to get ass-patted. People never learn from their mistakes if all they get is praise.

Well, as everyone has stated is the critique is very important, and they already put their input in, so here's what I have to say, the second drawing you did was a lot better than the first one, even in small details, though he had the head of a freakin' watermelon, haha, but in seriousness, you did fix proportions a little bit in the third drawing posted. I think you're progressively improving, but at a slow rate. You don't always have to understand how the body works, but it does help a lot, trust me, I draw like you, where I don't take into account anything other than "I'm going to start it, and I'm just going to draw everything in", but that took a LOT of time, and a LOT of practice, and I still find it a lot easier to start yourself with some guidelines of what position the character will be in, the proportions, etc.It's important to take critique, and don't let anyone bring you down, keep at it, and you'll be fine. Best of luck to you.
